Bridging the Recruiter Gap
- Animoto
Animoto didn't need a full-time recruiter but did need occasional support to bring in key hires and backfills. Hito Labs understood their team, culture, value proposition, and business goals, stepping in as needed to make targeted hires. As the company grew, we helped them transition by hiring a full-time recruiter. When bandwidth was temporarily streteched, we helped that recruiter.
Boosting Efficiency
- Shortcut
Shortcut needed multiple front-end hires, at different experience levels. We helped to define the interview agenda and assessment, increasing the amount of interviewers for later stage screens - giving more balance to the team and maximizing recruiting efforts. Measuring, and improving, candidate conversion and time in stage, allowed us to set expected hire dates and plan for feature development and hiring pace.
Growth Spurt
- The Nonprofit
The Foundation needed to to build a new digital division, including several senior roles and functions that were new to the organization. The Foundation didn't need Recruiting headcount beyond this push. Hito assisted hiring managers to define the scope of the new role, and trained interview teams to conduct efficient assessments. We introduced a simple Hiring Plan and Debreif format that was used across the organiztion and helped hired over 30 talented full time employees, many who have already been promoted and leading groups.
Diversity
- CommentSold
Many of our Clients prioritize the strengths diversity brings to their team and demand it in the recruiting process. Some clients have done well hiring referrals, but recognize the referral pool does not always bring diversity - or the best candidates. We help supplement recruiting efforts to bring top tier diverse talent.

ABOUT HITO LABS
We come from the in-house world of HR and leading teams. We were frustrated by the broken contingency model of recruiting. What happened to truly understanding the team needs and representing the brand to candidates? We do things differently at Hito Labs, truly partnering with hiring managers and becoming a trusted expert on their team. We focus on helping to identify their needs, finding and vetting talent, creating a candidate experience, and getting the right people hired. Our whole team is remote. We value fulfilling work that provides the flexibility to spend time with family, kids and allow us to work from anywhere. We think the future is remote work and we love being part of this movement.
